Richard Louv, best selling author of the groundbreaking book, Last Child Left in the Woods, has a released a new book entitled, The Nature Principal: Human Restoration And The End Of The Nature Deficit Disorder. It expands on Louv's idea that society's technological focus is negating some of our human capacities specifically those enhanced through the power of the natural world.
This morning I heard an interview of KPBS radio which you can access here, in which Louv passionately spoke about the importance of spending meaningful time outdoors -- whether in a your own backyard or the Australian Outback.
